Moon Storm
Only a vampire can solve these crimes–a vampire private eye named Samantha Moon...
Detective Samantha Moon finds herself entangled in a mystery that transcends time, myth, and the supernatural. After lifting the veil that cloaked an ancient Armenian town, she inadvertently unleashes something far worse, the insatiable hunger of a cursed scroll.
What was once a hunt for answers quickly spirals into a desperate fight for survival. The scroll does not simply exist—it calls, it tempts, and it corrupts. With her team, Brent Cole, Kingsley Fulcrum, and Detective Sherbet, Sam must navigate treacherous alliances, battle-driven factions, and a past that refuses to stay buried.
But power of this magnitude comes at a cost. As the scroll tightens its grip, it forces her to confront a chilling reality. Whoever possesses the scroll holds the fate of all supernatural life. The consequence of that responsibility threatens to consume her, turning friend against friend.
With time running out and danger closing in, Sam must make an unthinkable protect the scroll, destroy it, or surrender to the force that threatens to unravel her very soul. As the battle lines are drawn and betrayals unfold, the only certainty is that no one will emerge unscathed.
In this thrilling conclusion to April M. Reign’s non-canon series, Samantha Moon must decide not only the fate of the supernatural world but her own path forward. Some wars are fought in the open—others, deep within.

About the author
April M. Reign
81 books93 followersApril M. Reign was born and raised in Southern California by her happily married parents. She is the oldest of three daughters and considers both of her sisters to be her best friends.
Growing up, she was involved in many sports: softball, surfing, tennis, and Kenpo karate. Many weekends at the beach with her family included her father packing up the long boards and teaching all three daughters how to ride a wave. The activity that stands out the most for her is the thirteen years that she spent studying karate with her family. The family’s karate days remain as some of her fondest memories.
Sports weren’t the only activities that she enjoyed. She played the accordion for twelve years and even played for Jerry Lewis kids fundraisers. During those years, she learned how to read and write music.
Besides writing music, during her high school years, she also discovered her passion for writing words. At fifteen, she began writing poetry. By the time she reached the age of twenty, she was writing short stories, with no other intention than to get the stories from her mind to paper.
At twenty-one years old, she married and shortly after, two handsome sons graced her life. When her marriage ended, she faced the long, difficult path of raising her two boys into strong, well-mannered young men. She took on the task with fervor.
In order to support her children, she worked as a litigation analyst for ten years at a large company and began to pursue a career in law. After long hours in college and even more hours at the law library, while still raising her children alone, she realized that practicing law was not the dream that she wanted to live. She spent the next eleven years as a U.S. Customs Broker, working directly with the FDA and FWS, clearing international shipments into the country.
While she worked full time and raised two adolescent boys, she also decided to follow her dream to write a book. A year later, Enticing the Moon was published. Since then, she has written six more novels and several short stories, and has entered many writing contests, winning first place on several occasions.
As an indie author, April M. Reign writes and publishes her own books. With the increase in her book sales, she was able to give up her job in the corporate world and pursue her dream of writing stories which she hopes capture the attention and intrigue of her readers.
Readers can find April M. Reign’s eBooks on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and more online retailers. The books are also available in print at Lulu.com.

Last novel in JR Rain’s Vampire for Hire universe about Sam Moon, Private Investigator working for Fullerton P.D.’s Vampire Crimes Unit.
Continuation of the previous book, starting right after the magical unveiling of the town. When Sam, her partner Brent and Kingsley investigated an ancient town and castle, they discovered a cursed scroll that tempts and corrupts the fate of all supernatural life. Reveling the first layer removed the veil over the town making them heroes. Now they have to get back to the castle to decipher the rest of the scroll, but every ambitious supernatural is after it. Detective Sherbet joins them.
Question: When then were in the warehouse, why didn’t they wait until the were safely in the tunnels before opening the scroll?
Also, if Sam is going to be away from her office for a while, she should clear off her desk, reassigning the cases to others so that they they’re not just in Limbo. And read the bulletin board note reminders; They were put there for a reason.
Fave scenes: Sam talking to the glowing guardian, Hawaii, the monastery guardian and the search for Sam.
